As someone said below: We wanted to really like this place. ||The room was relatively clean, the shower plug was disgustingly wrapped in hairs so i took it out and put it outside the window. The beds were uncomfortable but we weren't there too long. There was storage in the room and a fridge which was a nice addition. They also came in to make the beds for us. There was a nice courtyard bit at the top of the stairs with chairs and tables. All clean. NO WIFI||The disappointment came when we went for pizza downstairs, gorgeous outside area with shading ivy. We were shown a table we didn't fancy and so we chose a 4 seat table as it wasn't busy. The waiter literally huffed and sighed at this when he came to the table without saying anything else. Made me feel so uncomfortable that i just wanted to get out of there. Worst kind of staff. Obviously, during our whole meal, not 4 people came into the restaurant. So rude but the manager tried to smooth things back and i appreciated his effort but didn't do any good. ||We left hastily and then when trying to fall asleep upstairs, the restaurant starts washing up but what sounded like they were breaking the kitchen apart. Don't get a room above the kitchen!!!!! it goes on till 2am. Would never come back, to the hostel or to...
Read moreI really wanted to like this place because the staff seemed really pleasant. And obviously I could tell in advance it was going to be basic but certain things just weren't necessary. For example, the layout of the tiny bathroom is very ill-thought-out. Toilet is such that you have to kind of sit side on/diagonally. Literally no way to have a shower without it soaking the entire bathroom and some of bedroom! The beds are 'ok', wouldn't like to sleep on one for more than a couple of nights. However, the first thing I noticed when I got in the room was that the top bedsheets, a sort of duvet thing, were not clean. Strange stains and lots of hairs (not mine as I had literally just come in the room). I didn't feel like there had been any effort to even pretend they were clean. I've actually never seen this type of thing anywhere before and I travel a lot. In the twin room I was in there was one small wardrobe with 3 hangers. No other storage space anywhere so was easier to leave stuff in my bag. I could go on but like I say, the staff were nice enough (although utterly disorganised) so I don't want to be overly negative. I just felt most of these issues could be avoided/fixed and next time I would either try es Alocs or pay a bit more for...
Read moreI'll start with the good part: the restaurant is very good and the dishes are reasonably priced. ||||The rooms however, are a different story. I am writing this at 02:30 am, still unable to fall back to sleep after being woken up by one of the staff members blasting music in the next room. ||||The walls are paper-thin, so the guests of the restaurant will keep you awake until midnight, after which the staff will keep you up by having some after hours parties. ||||The room is small and only 2 single beds were available, it was not really possible to put them together. I am not sure what is the reason for this, maybe religious. ||||I guess this establishment caters more to the youth segment, who are anyway sleeping late and use the room only for passing out and showering. ||||I am not sure if breakfast was offered, since every day we left at 09:30 and everyone else was asleep (?). ||||Pros:||- Restaurant ||- Cheap ||||Cons:||- Sleep Quality ||- Beds||- No...
